Mission
The mission of the Temple Emunah Library is to provide Temple members, youth, clergy and staff with a wide variety of materials of Judaic interest. We aim to create a warm and relaxed atmosphere to encourage Jewish learning and promote Jewish culture.
The primary objectives of the collection are:
- -To support and enrich the educational programs of the Temple
- -To provide support to the Religious School and Preschool by making available age appropriate materials that reflect the varied abilities and maturity levels of students
- -To encourage reading for pleasure as well as for information
- -To promote Jewish culture
- -To act as a resource to enhance members’ abilities to celebrate the holidays, know G-d, themselves, and delight in being Jewish
The Temple Emunah library has about 4000 books of Jewish interest or by Jewish Authors.
The library has a new look! Come and see our new furniture, children’s rug and librarian’s desk. Coming soon – comfortable reading chairs. We also have a new computer which we are using to bring the library in to the 21st century. We are in the process of cataloging all of the books in the library which will make it easier to finding what you need.
We are in the process of updating our children’s collection and have been helped by many of you who generously donated books at Shuk Emunah. We also have many new teen and adult books.
